mRemoteNG is a fork of the mRemote application, which is a multi-tabbed remote connections manager. mRemoteNG allows viewing remote connections that can be established by using multiple protocols within a single tabbed interface. The supported protocols include RDP (Remote Desktop/Terminal Server), VNC (Virtual Network Computing), ICA (Citrix Independent Computing Architecture), SSH (Secure Shell), Telnet, HTTP/HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and Raw Socket Connections. mRemoteNG also provides some additional features (other than remote connectivity), which include port scans according to a specified IP address range, verification of active and dysfunctional components and the option to organize and save a connection list.

The main interface of mRemoteNG displays a component check tab, which informs of functional and dysfunctional components, including RDP, VNC and PuTTY (SSH/Telnet/Rlogin/RAW).

You can establish a remote connection by selecting a protocol from the Tools drop down menu, e.g., SSH file transfer. Furthermore, you can also scan ports, perform a component check and configure application options.

Sometimes, one requires gathering information about the open ports on a network, which can be used for establishing remote connections. You can use the built-in port scan utility of mRemoteNG to initiate a port scan by entering an IP address range.
